Would you let Xiao run a Let's Play here at HoL?

    To be perfectly fair to Ramidel, Xiao did offer up this idea right before NaNo started. If I wasn't so busy with university myself, I might help her lay off the slack with

    OREGON TRAIL.

    I probably will do that on the weekend. I get four family member slots. Who shall the lucky users be?

    Dude, I'd better be in there. Preferably with a big honkin' gun.

    As for the LP, I have been screen-shotting, the problem is that it's an addictive damn game and every time I boot it up I lose like six hours and I can't afford that right now.

    Okay, I'm doing this now. I'll make it its own thread so the pictures don't break this thread.

    Thanks man. I'm rapidly learning that there's no such thing as a 'quick' run of my game. I've been at it on and off for nigh on two weeks and I'm only about seven months in to a three year game. (Admittedly I'm aiming for the best ending, but still.)

    So wait, are you playing Dragon Age, or what?

    Next time I update (which will be... over a week from now), I may do Sid Meier's Pirates!

    New or old? I'm yet to play the 2004 or whatever version, Pirates! Gold was fun though.

    The new version is fun, however old school gamers will undoubtedly argue that the original is always best. I have both either way.

    I think even most old school gamers would argue that the new version is far superior. It's got all the joy of the original, but with far fewer of the bullshittery. I can't recall ever seeing somebody favour the old over the new.

    Let me fire up the old one and confirm this.

    edit: Yep the new version is more fun, however like both versions, the game tends to end so quickly even with the medicine skill. I suppose for LP though that is trait favorably looked upon.

    Okay, guys, here's the deal. I was gonna do a run of Atelier Annie to show you guys why I am so dead-set hooked on this series, but the game is way too fucking time consuming and frankly if I hear goddamn Fitz's 11-year-old-girl voice ONCE more I will scream.

    So, biatches, we're doing an evil Arcanum run! Voting on race, background and skills/abilities/whatever coming soon!
